Not my 70yo mom. She used to have a big gray PC but switched to a Chromebook (one I gave her) about 15 years ago, and now only uses her phone and tablet.

I "sold" my mother my personal top-of-the-line MacBook Pro ~2014... only to eventually discover it largely unused when we were probating her properties.

iPad awas the perfect device for her (I've touched one perhaps twice, in my entire lifetime).

As a kid I used to buy bootleg Japanese Dragonball Z tapes from a legit store at the mall!

They sold them under the counter. I just wanted to know what was going to happen ahead of all my friends haha.

Seems like the wrong link to me. Just a dude working on a car.

Is there anything like this for the Logitech keyboards (eg MX Keys Mini)? I want to remap some keys there too but don’t want to run Options+

Same problem here. I have Wave Keys for Mac, and my girlfriend has the Wave Keys for Windows with reversed Fn and Ctrl. It’s a headache when I go to her place. I use Karabiner, but it doesn’t really swap them, and Logi Options+ doesn’t either obviously.

Use kanata (github.com/jtroo/kanata). It's software remapping and works on any keyboard (including built-in laptop keyboards).

Great docs, incredible feature set (literally 50x the capabilities of any logitech first party remapper), and very lightweight.

Their margins may not have changed actually. https://youtu.be/IGCzo6s768o

I agree with Epic. It should be like on windows or macOS where you can register, get notarized, and then distribute without scare screens. I don’t see why phones are inherently different than computers.

I don’t want to be too flippant, but I think there is a real trade off across many aspects of life between “freedom” and “safety”.

There is a point at which people have to think critically about what they are doing. We, as a society, should do our best to protect the vulnerable (elderly, mentally disabled, etc) but we must draw the line somewhere.

It’s the same thing in the outside world too - otherwise we could make compelling arguments about removing the right to drive cars, for example, due to all the traffic accidents (instead we add measures like seatbelts as a compromise, knowing it will never totally solve the issue).

> protect the vulnerable (elderly, mentally disabled, etc)

Yes, one could imagine some kind of mental test and if you fail you don't get to use your bank online, you have to walk to the physical location to make transactions. But this can obviously be abused to shut out people from banking based on political and other aspects. Generally democracies are wary of declaring too broad sets of people as incapable of acting independently without some guardian. Obviously beyond a certain threshold of mental incapacitation, dementia etc. it kicks in, but just imagine declaring that you're too easy to influence and scam and we can't let you handle your money,... But somehow we can rely on you using sane judgment when voting in elections. Or should we strip election rights too?

We rely on polite fictions around the abilities of the average person. The contradictions sometimes surface but there is no simple way to resolve it without revising some assumptions.

“Acquihire” means there was an acquisition. This is just a hire.

Didn’t we all learn this with the Snowden files? Nothing new unfortunately

Yeah they are both acting as a RAT essentially. Just one is in your control and one isn’t.
